One of my all-time favorites I only played once, and I've never seen it since. "Ninja Clowns", circa '92.

Paperboy is one of my favorite arcade games. "Lemme see you hang-10!"
Rampage and Double Dragon were okay, and Gauntlet brings back a lot of memories!
This game was an obsession for my buddy John and me:
We first found this in an arcade in Times Square, and played it for about four hours. Travelling back to Staten Island (yes, we went all the way to Times Square just to play video games), we talked about how great it would be if one of the places in our area were to get this game. About a week later, a deli right around the corner from us got Karnov. We were so good at this game, crowds of kids would gather to watch us play, and try to get tips from us. We had it down to a science. I haven't seen it since.

These are the arcade games I grew up on. Just a few of my favorites.
720 - The most awesome skate-boarding game ever
The old laser-disc games that were $.50!! Dragon's Lair and Space Ace
Paper Boy - Nuff' said
Joust!
ExciteBike - This game stole a lot of money from me
Galaga - I was the neighborhood Galaga Master!
Punch Out - Remember..."Body Blow, Head Blow!"
